Questions to Ask When You Call
You're not expected to know this. These questions help you compare and avoid surprises.
“Can I see your General Price List?”
Federal law (FTC Funeral Rule) requires them to give you itemized pricing. You have every right to ask.
“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
This means they bill the insurance company directly. You don't pay thousands upfront and wait to be reimbursed.
“What's included vs. what's extra?”
Packages may not include everything. Ask about the casket, embalming, transportation, facility fees, and death certificate copies.
Know Your Rights
The FTC Funeral Rule protects you. Every funeral home must provide an itemized General Price List if you ask — in person or over the phone. You are never required to buy a package and can choose services individually. You also have the right to use a casket purchased elsewhere.

What Families Say
“There are no words to express my family’s gratitude for Towers. When we had my father’s sudden passing we had no idea where to even start. We reached out to Towers and they were the most compassionate, patient and helpful as can be. We had to transport him from FL to NY and they made the entire process so seamless. They were very communicative during the entire process from our first call to the end of his burial. They took care of the transport, viewing, mass, cemetery plot and burial. They did absolutely everything as we were clueless on what to do. We interacted with Mary, Amy, Taylor and Gabby. Taylor was supper attentive and answered all my calls and emails in such a timely manner. Gabby was our amazing director and she was outstanding! Our family and friends commented on how great everything was from beginning to end and how they could see my mother, siblings and I were all very well taken care off throughout. Despite the unfortunate event, they helped ease the burden for us.”
— Lilian Veronica
“I cannot say enough about Towers; Krissie, Bill and the staff were so kind and wonderful to our family. My MIL was extremely ill and Krissie made her look beautiful again and 20 years younger (she would have loved that)! My MIL looked so beautiful that her sisters told their kids they want to go there. It was not only that my MIL looked great, the care Towers took of our family before, during and after the funeral was outstanding. This is never an easy time but they made it as good as it could possibly be. We live in Garden City and family have always used our local funeral home but Towers was far superior, everyone in the family mentioned how impressed they were. We highly recommend Towers.”

“A very caring, family-owned business. When my mother passed, they took such great care of the entire situation. Krisse is absolutely amazing—she answered my calls immediately and offered comfort and kindness to me and my family during our time of need. Throughout this difficult time, this funeral home was more than just helpful; they truly felt like family.”
